Set MongoDB version across different plugin executions about embedmongo-maven-plugin HOT 3 CLOSED

These goals have been deliberately kept separate to try and maximise their usefulness, so you can use mongo-import without using start if you wish. This is what's causing the double extraction, these are completely isolated invocations. I don't think it's possible to reuse an existing extraction because of the way the flapdoodle API works - each process has its own Starter class and when this class is 'prepared' it extracts.

Port is something that can be randomly generated by start, so for that property it's important that we publish the value in a way that other plugins can use. This isn't quite the same with version, and I think if you want to set a single version across all plugins then you should set this globally in the pom as you describe.

Thanks for the explanation, but I was not expecting this behaviour once read the available documentation
Maybe I have missed something. Thanks again

Ah, I see that version was missing from the docs for the other goals. I've fixed this now.
